18" wheel on 06+later Dyna
Thinking of upgrading to 18" for more tire choices on my 06 super. Anybody gone there and can share their thoughts on the matter? I will go 180 or 200 if I can get away with it. Stock 17" seems to limit choices. What size front wheel goes best?

You could go 18x5.5 in the rear and leave the front stock if you stick with spokes. Or if you have mags and are changing both wheels, it's hard to beat the 21" front 18" rear combo.

Handler has done this with an 18 x 6" rim.

H-D are the folks that make 17" wheels. RC componets makes 18" wheels. You should be able like the dude above said to git a 5.5" rim and put a 180/55 18" tire on back. Call RC componets and talk to them. Some rim mfg don't make their wheels to take a wheel this wide oh ! If you have the bucks. Go with Forged wheels.
